I have taken mined(1) from DragonFlyBSD and integrated into the FreeBSD source tree. This is a very lightweight full screen editor with builtin support for cons25 and xterm. Yes, it is limited in its capabilites compared with /rescue/vi, but saves use 360 kB of diskspace and it does not require a termcap file. In replacing /rescue/vi, I have installed /bin/mined, /rescue/mined, and /rescue/edit (as an alias to mined). The installation into /bin/mined is due to my limited understanding of the rescue/Makefile structure. If someone wants to eliminate /bin/mined, it's fine with me. Yes, I'm aware of PR bin/80256, but that appears to stalled in a state of limbo. I have a diff to src/bin and src/rescue if anyone is interested. -- Steve
